And, if I'm not mistaken, 0.0.0.0 is typically a listener that isn't bound to any specific
interface... so, if you create a new, virtual interface, that listener should also answer
on that particular port.

Now as far as addresses go, the following networks you will find in RFC1918...
otherwise know as "private address space" or "non-routeable networks" (which
just means that you can't use it out on the Internet and expect it to go anywhere).

Yes, a lot of VPN and VPN-like things tend to use these non-routeable addresses
for simple IPs (eg. certain IMs when they're trying to establish a file transfer tunnel
between clients) and many LANs use these before they hit a NAT and connect to
the Internet (so, yeah, kind of "connection sharing" but, really, it's just a simple way
to route packets).

In any case... I hope this helps... considering it's 4am for me, I should probably
sleep and hope this makes some sense to someone.
